Do Not Pass Go. Do Not Collect 50 Billion Dollars.

I guess I am naive. I figured Bernie Madoff, after being caught pulling off the largest Ponzie Scheme ever would be wasting away in some sort of jail. But no, he was able to post the $10 Million dollar bond (probably only had to pay 10%) and is free. Hello, the man stole FIFTY BILLION DOLLARS! Shouldn't he at least be behind bars. Even a $10,000,000.00 bond should be placed in escrow until this is over - like after his conviction and sentencing. Maybe bond should have been set at $50 Billion?

And the irony is, he'll be sent to some country club type of prison. Put him in a maximum security prison and let the other prisoners have at him. Greed - it's disgusting!
